Runaway List- 適合初級的英語短篇故事

Milo carried a blue box and a folded list.

The science club meeting started in ten quick minutes.

Milo planned a short presentation about smooth river stones.

He hurried along the bright hallway toward the small room.

A sudden breeze pushed through an open window beside him.

The wind blew the list from his hand and under shelving.

The box slipped, and the stones rolled across shiny tiles.

Several stones hit a metal bucket, and the bucket tipped.

Water inside formed small puddles that spread across the floor.

Milo bent, shoes sliding, but he kept his balance.

He used a long ruler to pull the wet list back.

He then started to organize the stones into two clear rows.

Each row gained equality in length and color, shining under light.

Club members arrived, paused, and pointed at the tidy rows.

They clapped softly, calling the floor display a clever surprise.

Milo closed the box and placed it beside the door.

The stones stayed in neat rows while the meeting began.

米洛拿著一個藍色盒子和一張折好的清單。

科學社的聚會十分鐘後開始。

他計畫做一個關於光滑河石的小型報告。

他沿著明亮的走廊快步走向小教室。

突如其來的微風穿過他身旁的開窗。

風把清單從他手中吹到架子下。

盒子打滑，石頭在光亮的瓷磚上滾動。

幾顆石頭撞到金屬桶，桶子傾倒。

桶中的水在地面形成小水窪並慢慢擴散。

米洛彎下腰，鞋底滑動，但他仍保持平衡。

他拿長尺把濕清單拉了回來。

接著他開始把石頭整理成兩排整齊隊伍。

每排在長度與顏色上呈現一致，並在光線下閃耀。

社員陸續進來，停下腳步，指著整齊的石排。

他們輕輕鼓掌，稱這地面的展示很巧妙。

米洛闔上盒子，把它放在門旁。

石頭保持整齊隊形，而聚會隨即開始。
